On August 2, 1972, the Detroit Tigers acquire some needed help for the pennant chase, purchasing left-hander Woodie Fryman from the Philadelphia Phillies. The 32-year-old southpaw, who posted a 4-10 record before being released by Philadelphia, Fryman will win 10 of 13 decisions in a Tiger uniform, spearheading Detroit to the American League East title. In two days, the Tigers will purchase C Duke Sims from the Dodgers he will hit .316 in 38 games. The two veterans will spark Detroit to the AL East title.
